Bend Bulletin Photo) !ke Convinced Program Well WASHINGTON (UP) President Eisenhower is convinced Amer ica's foreign aid program is well worth the money because of the way it is "stiffening" the tree world's defense against aggres sion. In his, semi-annual aid report to Congress, Mr. Eisenhower said to day there Is no other way to reap eo many security dividends so thenply. r He reported that the U.S. econo mic, military, and technical assis tance programs have helped give the free world bolh "stiffer de fenses a ga inst aggress ion" and "stronger economies." "Added together, these meas ures have brought tfte free world as a whole to a position of measur ably greater security and have made the ground firmer for fur ther forward movement," he said. "In the current world situation, the dollars invested in the mutual security program have brought greater - security to the people of tlie United States than could the same amount of dollars used in shifting the emphasis to Asia, any other manner." The report, covering the six- month period ending June 30, noted that economic recovery has made nun-military assistance to Europe, il possible to terminate almost all where it is sorely needed. PINE, Colo., (UP) President Eisenhower waded knee deep into one of his favorite trout streams todav and fished briskly in a de termined effort to catch enough to feed his party at lunch.

He has been sta tioned at Pearl Harbor on a tour of naval dntv. Youne: Stephens arrived tn Port land by plane and was met there hv his parents. He plans to spend his 30day leave here. Foreign Aid Worth Money complete day off, drove here from Denver, 40 miles to the northeast, early this morning and planned to return this evening. j He came to the mountain ranch of Bal Swan on the North Fork of the South Platte River where the cold, crystal-clear stream races through the tiny mountain valley beneath the towering Rookies. He quickly changed to fishing clothes. and -was over his kneeB in the stream within less than half an hour after arrival. Reporters got only one glimpse of the President after he entered the stream and they were barred by state police from a convenient road that runs directly above the fishing spot. With a busy day of work and a round of golf Thursday behind him, the President put off all furth er official duties for a day as he tackled the trout in the north fork of the South Platte River In mile-high rolling country that edges the Rockies. He planned to return here this evening. Mrs. Elsenhower, who flew back from Washington with him Wednesday night, anticipated an other quiet day of visiting with her mother, Mrs. John S. Doud. The White House served notice in advance that reporters would be barred from a convenient road overlooking the rapid stream where the President fishes on Swan's Ranch. A similar crackdown last week led to reporters being moved by Colorado state patrolmen from a road near the President's fishing activities In the Rockies near Fraser, Colo. Mr. Eisenhower lost no time in getting down to worft Thursday following' his return from a 48 hour trip east on which he dealt with the flood disaster in eastern states, conferred with officials in Washington, and addressed thej American Bar Association in Philadelphia.

Wayne Morse, onetime Republican who will seek reelection next year as a Democrat, today predicted his own victory at the polls, regard less of who his opponent might be. The former University of Oregon law professor was back in his home state for some advance cam paigning and to assess public sen timent on current issues. He said he himself would be the principal issue In next year's penutorlal campaign in Oregon. , ' "fri 1956 the Issue will be more for or agamst me than for or against my opponent, whoever hi may be." Morse said. He Is due to share the speaker's platform with Rep. Edith Green at Sunday's Democratic picnic at Jantzen Beach Park. Morse said he expected that President Eisbenhower would seek re-election, that Adlal Stevenson would be the Democratic candidate and that Stevenson would win. He discounted Eisenhower's standings in national popularity polls with the comment, "If I had depended on popularity polls, wouldn't have got far," Morse, who said he considers con gressmen overpaid, was critical of Congress for adjourning without disposing of important legislation, Members should stay on the Job 11 months out of the year, he said, HCHKni'LE SET Sn-IhI to Th Bulletin MADRAS The Warm Springs boarding school will begin the 1955-S6 term September 6 at 9 a. m., Julian Smith, principal, re ports.

Faure's plan was reported to call for the ouster of Sultan Sidl Mo hammed Ben Moulay Arafa end the French resident general, Gil bert Grandval. The changes were expected to be announced at a French cabinet meeting this wek end. The ouster of Arafa and replac ing him with a regency council would go far to pacify the Nation alists in both Morocco and Alge ria where resentment against de- posal of his predecessor led to the week of riots which has taken 1,800 lives. But In Casablanca Arafa issued a denial of the reports the French were easing him out. A communi que said such reports could "only be linked to a systematic propa ganda campaign conducted against the imprial palace for some time." In Rabat, the ouster of Grand val was taken for granted. He Is hated by the French colonials fori his efforts to find common ground with the Nationalists. The oustor of Grandval would bring up new problems. It would pacify the French settlers but it was likely to touch off new, wide spread disorders by Arab groups that have grown to trust him. Faure met with Istiqlal (Inde pendence) Party leaders Thursday for the first time. The party has been outlawed and its leader, Ah med Balafrej, exiled to Switzer land. Faure's meeting with the fs tlalal here brought swift condem nation by right-wing groups In his government. Reliable sources said the Isti qlal delegates were largely In agreement with the solution shap ing up here and that they seemed ready to forego their efforts to re turn exiled Sultan Sidl Mohammed Ben Youssef to the Imperial pal ace at Rabat.
